My game doesn't work !!!!!?

Question

i bought the game Riddick escape from butcher bay and installed it onto my computer to see that it doesn't work. it says "the program needs geforce 3 compatible or something and then exits, is there any way i can get it to work? or is my computer just not good enough?

Answer 1

your computer just isnt good enough buy a new (er)  AGP  video card  in fact from the sound of it anything will be better then what you have now  

Answer 2

sounds like you don't have a graphics card capable of running it.

Answer 3

Geforce 3 is a type of graphics card. You need to upgrade your card in order to play the game. Cards are available for sale at local computer stores and of course auction sites such as ebay. A Geforce 3 from Ebay will cost around 10-25 bucks, but if you want a quality card so that you can play good games in the future (unless your intending of buying a new computer soon) you should look to buy a PCI-Express card. AGP graphics cards aren't plentiful much anymore in production and PCI-Express are the main type of cards manufactured. An 8800gtx is a good choice and will run modern games as long as your cpu is fast enough and you have enough ram. However, if your computer is old then it won't have PCI-E ports and therefore you can't use a PCI-E card. So you may have to search for an AGP.
